The fact that Mary thinks wearing the helmet of fate is a reward makes me think zatana made the right call to not include her.

[@jf_kein_k8590]

Then again, putting it on would show Mary that she effectivly gives up control of her body and powers to Nabu. Although, it could have an addicting effect on her...

Yea... but how she did it was kinda screwed up. She manipulated her students in the process, knowing their own personal beliefs and struggles and that Fate might not care.

It's almost always is like that, although Nabu is NOWHERE near as stingy as he is in most forms of media surprisingly. Usually when a person puts on that helmet, it ain't getting off, but so far there have been 4 new Dr. Fates that appeared in a single season. Though by the third time he was like, "Nah fam, if you want her back, than you need to run me YOUR body.".

[@MarkDC734]

Zatanna is morally a good person , i love how complex this whole situation was. She really had to grow up and toughen up in order to get her dad back. I kind of like that she has to do some unmoral things in order to get everything to work to her plan. I love that Khalid questioned her about everything especially since Tracy seems so young. Mary has real issues but Z could of handled that better . She had a good point though about how Mary is an ends justify the means kind of girl but its hypocritical because that's exactly how Z sees it for what she was planning all along

[@dazzinitv9283]

excellently said!

[@K-11609]

See that’s the weird thing, it’s left a bit ambiguous as to when Z decided to go on this path. The Phantom Stranger tells us that she only considered this proposal during the events of this arc, not when she first started teaching her students. If that was the case then why did Z hesitate to answer Khalid’s question on if she started teaching them to groom them into being a part of this deal?

[@kingd8468]

You can't handle someone like Mary better than how Zatana did. She refused to accept Zatana's criticism of her power hungry nature, after both going through Fate's test and then draining everyone's life force a second time despite promising not to do it again without their consent, nearly killing them and everyone else in the process. And then when Nabu entered the conversation, she basically pulled a "Dad will side with me" and was pissed off when that failed. And then she rage quit despite Zatana suggesting that she could have her chance to be Nabu's host if she took the time to deal with her issues first.

[@funkycrawler619]

I mean it's fine to me. Zatanna needed some ambiguity. The "OG Squad" all made questionable decisions at some point. This character development for her is so refreshing because it doesn't necessarily ruins her character but just complicates it. I like the way they handled it overall in hindsight because on initial rewatch it was hard to grasp where they were going but the debate it caused is what I think they wanted.

[@blastermasterguy]

Zatanna's may have felt that her immoral actions where justified but I have a gut feeling she's going to find out that her actions have terrible consequences.

Nabu - Khalid - the most logical, compassionate Fate and also the one connected most with the Green and Red magic's of Earth (ancient Earth magics directly connected to the planets Flora and Fauna) this also means he's arguably the most tasked Fate and the fate Nabu has the most influence over as Khalid wants to get to know Nabu, his own magical capabilities now that he has a new teacher that is essentially a god and while learning about Kent and who he was Tracy 13 - Nabu - a Fate perceptive to Black/Dark Magic/Chaos magic with a high calling and drive to serve and protect and prove themselves a hero worthy of being on "a team" let alone the justice league. Traci's Fate will probably be most active within the league Zatara - Nabu - wisest and most experienced of the current Fates however slowly reaching/exceeding a limit in both magic power and mental resistance to Nabu due to the fragility of Zatara as a host body Zatanna - Nabu- the strongest of the fates with untapped magic potential. this Fate has a high sense of duty and justice but is the most naive and easiest to manipulate emotionally and mentally due to *Zatanna having more control over the helmet and her body coupled with Nabu than any of the other fates* which just shows how strong even her subconscious is

[@slanetroyard92]

Zatanna needs to contact Billy and have him temporarily take the power back from Mary. Despite the fact that he was a 10 year old boy at the time, Billy understood that the magic he was given came with great responsibility and never abused it. His sister on the other hand doesn't realize that actions have consequences. Mary believes that the ends justify the means as long as it gets results. She could end up seriously hurting civilians or her team mates, possibly killing them by taking life force. That's why it's important for Dr fates host to have a good moral compass. To keep him from crossing the line. Zatanna had come a long way from the 14 year old girl we saw back in season one. Over the years she earned Nabu's trust to spend time with her father. Now she's come up with a solid plan for him and anyone else who wears the helmet to have a normal life and keep fate around.

[@HanithSVK]

I don't think that was problem... Problem was, that she became a lot like Black Adam, she decided to live in the SHAZAM form. She willingly decided that her life as a Mary is useless in the comparison with her SHAZAM personality. It's kinda paralel between SHAZAM and FATE , because both of them kinda "rewrites" personality and i think that was what Zatanna meant. I think Zee knew, that if Mary donned the helmed, she may never be able to put it down, especially since she had problem with SHAZAM already and Dr. Fate is at least on par with him. Imagine, she had a really serious problem with SHAZAM and she could control it and stopped anytime she wanted, but she didn't want to. What happens if she donnes the helmet of fate? Nabu may decide, that she is all the host he needs(immensely powerful with magic and with direct connection to the rock of eternity) + in her Shazam form she is pretty much immortal + she is willing to sacrifice everything for greater power.

I know a lot of people call Zatanna's deal a selfish one but we shouldn't forget that she put on the Helmet of Fate by her own choice. It wasn't an easy decision but she knew the consequences.

I find it weird that Captain Marvel/Shazam/Billy wasn’t in this series much. He didn’t even get a line in the last episode after not showing up all season, except for Mary’s mental experience. The writers intentionally had Mary become a villain instead of just having Billy talk to her, as brother and sister.

[@girl1213]

Mary became the villain in the comics too you know. She showed just how easily a Marvel can become an Adam if they don't confront the darkness within themselves. And she was close to Billy then and still fell, showing Billy despite how close he is to someone, even he can't stop them from falling prey to their darker parts of themselves because Billy literally has no dark parts (it's why Shazam the Wizard choose him while he was still so young)

[@SnakeRoadComicsOfficial3677]

Zatanna probably made a wise choice. Mary appears to have an addiction to powerful magic and given her Captain form is somehow unstable, perhaps it's best to not give her the helmet.

[@cunningsmile4166]

Mary wouldn't want to take the helmet off nor would she argue against a lot of Nabu's choices. Nabu is essentially someone who would shot a bad guy in the head and say "done". Klarion is his similar but opposite; he'd go BAZOOKA.

[@girl1213]

I'm not surprised why Mary became Black Mary. This was something that was addressed in the comics a long time ago. Mary indeed has a "driven" personality and without proper guidance it led her down a dark path. This is often what lead Shazam the Wizard to take away the Marvel power. Zatanna is not fully to blame for what happens to Mary. Mary has to confront this darkness on her own because it's *her* darkness. Just like Zatanna has to live with her own darkness brought on by her guilt for what happened to her father.

[@jackolantern147]

I think it's a bit unfair to Mary to call her atrracted to power, after all, with just one word, she could become almost as strong as Fate himself. Yet she chose not to, even when things got really dicey, because she knows that power can corrupt a person. Her stealing power from life and her friends was over the line, but she was desperate. After all they were literally fighting an unbound lord of chaos who beat them and Fate more than once. Though I will admit, her thinking that donning the helmet is a reward is a red flag. Nonetheless, it could've been handled better.

[@goliathgar4985]

Maybe so, but if Mary had to don the helmet, I think the wizard who gave Billy and the kids he chose to get the power of SHAZAM will have a talk with Nabu if it was wise to have Mary as a host with the power of SHAZAM cannot be given or can the lord of order can her hidden persona

[@LenUchiha_anglejr758]

I also know that the situation was dire as well. Like literally zatanna was holding the shield up literally Mary is the only one trying to hold back flaw with the other two were just warching.

[@lucasgray1492]

I think Zatanna’s arc was my favourite to watch. It’s obvious that she has done some questionable things. I mean when Khalid asks if she took them on to free her father she doesn’t answer yet the Phantom Stranger suggests that Zatanna only decided the course of action at the start of the arc. That hands some ambiguity. Everyone in the OG squad made some questionable decisions, and I think the one that did the least is Zatanna. Or at least if she did we never saw or heard of them so it’s refreshing seeing her be so layered. I also loved the addition of her students and how she handled her teaching. She did push Mary away but she was ultimately right, Mary wasn’t ready and saw being Fate’s host as a reward which it obviously wasn’t add that to the issues with the Shazam family, her willingness to drain people’s life forces without consent and her throwing a fit... she wasn’t ready and it will be interesting to see what happens when the group face her in battle

[@Alacaelum]

I believe she really only thought of this plan at the start of this arc and in no had this plan when she first took them in as apprentices. It still is manipulation... but i think she deserves not on the benefit of the doubt but... just to have her father back. It is just for Zatanna, Zatara already gave to much to Nabu, more than time for him to recover it a little. And the benefits of having a roster of very talented, powerful and promising individuals to change between are many. Nabu is ridiculously powerful and has access to a RIDICULOUSLY vast arsenal of magic, but having host that have varied specialties would allow him easy access to a few magical expertise more easily, his host still are his "magical focus" so to speak so their "quality" and "properties" still paly a role in the powers he can use.

Well she just unleashed probably the most powerfull Magical Villain in Earths History.

[@nategraham6946]

Even Khalid called her out for her treatment of Mary. Ouch.

[@alexblake5369]

The Khalid moment is probably the best moment in Young Justice. Because it speaks to the fact that Zatana is being highly manipulative here. Now to be fair I don't think she set out to recruit her students to sacrifice them to Dr. Fate (as shown by the flashback) but that wasn't because she was morally opposed to the idea. It's clear that the idea had never crossed her mind until the flashback moment. With that said once she saw opportunity, she jumped on it. The Lords of Chaos simply sped up the process but even if they hadn't intervened Zatanna was always going to try and recruit herself and her students to become a rotating Dr. Fate. And Khalid also called out Zatanna for giving them a false choice. Not many people would turn down the chance to become one of the most powerful heroes in the DC world, and not fully understand what they would be giving up. And even if they did, even fewer would turn down this sacrifice knowing it would be dooming a good friend and mentor's father. So it's a false choice and Zatanna knows it, she can say all she wants how she's not "pressuring" them to take the role and that it's their "choice" but everyone knows there's zero chance someone would turn it down. Now to be fair to Zatanna, sure she's being tactical here but you can argue that she's not doing anything wrong. Her finding people likely to want to become Dr. Fate is really no different from finding people who already want to be a hero or want to join a religion. She didn't actually pressure them in any way to make the choice. Likewise the Mary thing is just Khalid being wrong. Zatanna stated she had to keep up the barrier or they would die so she wasn't in a position to stop Mary, even less so when Mary (despite her being a double edge sword) was the only thing keeping flaw at bay.

[@serenitydoesthings]

[@theoutlawking9123]

It's really messed up when you realize, Zatanna basically used a bunch of kids just to free her father. Essentially making THEM Nabu's slaves now.

[@franciscocruz9199]

But she didn’t use her students, after the fight with Child, she pitch the idea to Khalid and Trace, and when she went to Mary, her reaction call Nabu’s attention and both (Mary and Fate) pressed her to tell (even Z told them it wasn’t the time since she had planned to fully discuss the idea with her students) but once pitched the idea and Nabu agreed to it and saw her father, was when she forgot about her students for a sec and acted like a done deal. When Khalid call her out she felt bad because her excitement blind her for a moment and she went to Trace to explain that she DID have a choice, proving (with acts) to Khalid that they weren’t means to an end and clearly care for them. Although this is my pov on how things went and I’m well aware that I might not be the case. I’m always open to discuss.

[@theoutlawking9123]

@@franciscocruz9199 Are you blind? Khalid just called her out on it, a character in the show noticed but you didn't. She straight up used them, if she didn't the writers wouldn't have made him accuse her. Manipulation is what she does, remember last season when she lied to Artemis about Wally's spirit, yeah, Zatanna is s damn manipulator!

[@franciscocruz9199]

@@theoutlawking9123 I do agree in the Artemis point, even if it was for her own good (preventing her for doing a deal with Wotan or someone else). Yes, I did see that Khalid call her out but the idea of her having rotating host was in the first episode of her arc, after she already have her students for a while (Trace for a few years), meaning that she didn’t train them to use them. Also she was sorry with Khalid for not fully discuss it with them (after pitching them the idea and being force by Nabu and Mary to tell the idea to Fate) and with Stranger explanation to both Nabu and Khalid, it got clearer to him that she didn’t use them. But I do see your point, I though the same the first time I watch the episode but dismissed the idea upon rewatching. Again I could be wrong, let’s hope the second part of Phantoms get this clearer.

[@shadowwriter4538]

It is but I still feel that Khalid and Traci could hav easily said no. It's not like Zatanna used a spell on them to make them say yes. Also, chances are had Zatanna had done nothing and simply let her father go odds are Nabu and the Lords of Order would have made someone else who was not willing to be Dr. Fate at all; could be some rando off the streets. Honestly, I blame Nabu a bit more since he's the one who can't seem to let go of his host.

[@theoutlawking9123]

@@shadowwriter4538 C'mon, you know they weren't gonna say no. They're kids, they think being superheroes in any capacity is an honor, and Zatanna used that against them, their good intentions and need to do good. They won't realize what a mistake they've just made until a few decades wearing that helmet. But trust me, THEY WILL, cause it's gonna impact every aspect of their lives : Dating, Marriage, Kids.

We all know, her desire to bring her father back was and is noble. Wanting to make up for her inability to help her father after his sacrifice by putting on the helmet. However, i think she should have come clean with everyone sooner. Also, whatever Mary does from now on will be at least partially her fault.

[@ezequielperez2224]

5:07 = what a beautiful scene ❤ . after 3 seasons Zatara is finally going to be with his daughter Zatanna forever

[@MyrmidonRadd]

Personally, I don't see anything wrong with what Zatanna did. Sure, forcing her proteges to take turns as Doctor Fate is a pretty reprehensible thing to do...except she didn't force them at all, nor were they tricked. Zatanna merely had an idea, put forward the suggestion, and offered each of them a choice which they willingly took knowing the consequences; except Mary, who clearly and demonstrably was not responsible enough for it. And she was still trying to do right by her, to continue teaching her until one day she could take on the mantle, or otherwise go on to be a great hero on her own merits; it was Mary's own power-addicted mentality that saw wearing the helm of Nabu as nothing but a reward to be coveted that caused her to lash out like that.

[@bryantbillips4064]

It's interesting that Khalid was the first one of the four to become Dr Fate since his uncle was Kent Nelson the first Dr Fate. Why not just have him wear the helmet of nabu permanently and have Giovanni renstated in the justice league sitting next to Zatanna at league meetings at the watchtower

[@DesignIncase]

Did you miss the first season? It's not about becoming Fate when needed. Nabu intends to have full control 24/7 until the host dies. Khalid life would effectively cease to exist. This new deal allows the hosts to spend majority of their time free to be them and not get used up by Nabu. Probably work in more people if need be. Giovanni already has some serious PTSD from all this.

[@dirdib69]

Interesting (and telling) that Zatanna does not answer the question. It's easy to read that either as her being busted and knowing it, or just being honest enough to not tell a lie (or even her realizing in that moment that it might be true). I get what everyone is saying about her getting her father back, but it's still shady. Also, Mary's "fall" seems rather forced to me - writing could have been better.

[@serenitydoesthings]

I think it's more of a time problem. Of course she took on protogés, who can eventually help her free her father. But she had the idea with the rotating hosts for Dr fate in the first episode of this arc - when she already had all of her students

[@AmitCinematicUniverse]

I like Mary's ability to absorb fire to fuel herself. That alone can make you a great fire fighter. Combining that with Khalid's healing powers, you can become the best reacue hero.

[@firxanza5172]

Mary got so upset that she ran away to Apokolips and joined Granny Goodness as one of the Furies under the alias Black Mary

[@shadowstrider5033]

Here is a question: They have an entire nation of mages that live underwater. Why don't they just get seven of them from Atlantis and have each of them take turns using the helmet for a day each? That way fate gets to be active nearly 24x7 and the seven people just lose one day per week. In exchange, Fate could teach them order magic and other things as payment. Why is this an issue again?

[@dredre999]

Some have trouble breathing a while for an extended amount of time(I'm not 100 percent sure it's fractual). The Aleateans have there own life and families and many don't have a desire to live on the service world. The show would be boring 7 random people wearing the helmet people wouldn't care and they would have to do a background for all 7 people and grow there character while pushing young justice separate sub plots

I still don’t get why they can’t just have whoever’s fates host take the helm off when there’s not a threat that requires fate to be there, and put it on when their powers are needed. It would keep things so much easier for everyone. They could put the helm on a strap or something

[@badsnowman]

you don't really know how to make a show that gets people watching, do you? what would be the fun in that if there is no risk or danger in just putting on the helmet, if you do it only when you want to then it becomes more like a vacation and not a sacrifice, imagine batman and superman only going out to save the people they want to save and not every time something is up, you have to put your heroes in moral conundrums to make it interesting and watchable

Because he’s a prick, he’s traumatized of being left in the dust for many years and because he feels alone (that’s why he agreed to let Wally go when Kent offered his company in exchange).

Because they risk pissing off Nabu and him keeping the next host trapped with the helmet forever. Plus, the world needs a Lord of Order to go off against Chaos.

[@breezy3392]

Because after being locked away for decades Nabu doesn't trust humans not to lock him away again if he doesn't have a host body, so he made a deal bound by magic with Zatara and is now making this deal

This was literally the situation with Kent in the first season. It was tried, and it didn't work out to Fate's satisfaction. As a result, he began refusing to take the helmet off, which made the host a prisoner and slave.

[@serenitydoesthings]

[@Firestata84]

Honestly - this kind of deal should have already been worked up between Justice league and Dr Fate long before now. Taking one host for a constant job is frankly insane, but having a pool of minimum 4 people to rotate between makes Fate's demands more reasonable. 1/4 month 24/7 - that's 168 hours where your time and life isn't your own. Well, yeah - how many hours did you work last month? Add some salary from JL and this idea is ready to go. However, rejecting Mary was stupid. Yes, she is greedy and want power but no one learn nor improve anything by being kicked out. Being kicked out mostly mean you double down on your behaviour since you got nothing to lose. And, without going into spoiler territory, this is exactly what happens here.

[@theorangerabbit8006]

Now while I do wholeheartedly agree Zatanna deserved her father back… This was a d*ck move of doing so, she DID encourage Mary to use her powers the way she did and then beat her down for doing so and then Immediately proposes to share the helmet without even asking her students’ permission. And of course every question about her intentions she was asked she avoided. Zatanna may have gotten her father back, but in the process she became a snake.

[@TheIrishTea]

Ignoring the sheer moral manipulations from Zatanna in which she essentially groomed three teenagers into being sacrificial lambs for her own selfish reasons... Zatanna completely failed Mary as a mentor. She fed her worst qualities, stoked them, and failed to teach her the importance of responsibility and the true nature of the Helmet of Fate.

[@alexmelik4030]

Won't be surprised if both Fate and his new hosts will benefit from this far beyond expectations, while Zatanna will be left behind to reap what she sow, and wonder was it worth it. Kids will become great wizards, Fate will get multi-faceted personality and improve on his role significantly, they all might develop healthy respect and friendship towards each other (Fate included).

[@nategraham6946]

I do think that Khalid had a point, and it was brutal to watch. And I must say that I think that Zatanna was wrong to exclude Mary. I am of the opinion that it would actually be good for her. I think there are times when Mary's mindset are important, and it may be needed to actually achieve something when the chips are down, much like in the Green Lantern comics, when there is nothing left that works, Hal dies so he can become a Black Lantern, we all need an ace up our sleeve, even Fate.
